Chemiluminescent enzyme immunoassays: a review of bioanalytical applications

This review gives an overview of the most recent and innovative developments in the field of chemiluminescent immunoassays through carefully selected examples. First, assays using microtiter plates for high-throughput or multiplexed assays aiming to achieve more complex assays through the multiplication of parameters per wells will be described. Systems will then be presented that have been recently developed, motivated by integration and miniaturization of existing immunoassays in more complex experimental setups. Finally, enhanced-performance chemiluminescent biochips, based on chemiluminescent reaction intensification, will be introduced. Theoretically, all immunochemical techniques could be used to design immunoassays. Nevertheless, because immunoassays/immunochips are proposed as rapid...
